Around FtB

How was everyone’s Halloween? I had to work late and missed prime trick-or-treating time, so I had no kids stop by. Now I have these bags of candy that I’m sure not going to eat. I’ll dig into the goody bag of FtB, instead.

Stephanie Zvan was at CSICon, and she thinks they did a good job on social justice issues.

Where I live the houses are a little further apart and the driveways are long so little kids don’t trick or treat much in my neighbourhood. We sometimes get a few teenagers, though, so this year I had cans of sardines to hand out. I was really curious to see what reaction that would get but, as luck would have it, not a single trick-or-treater came to our door. Looks like I’ll be having sardines for lunch for a while.

Simply participating in the activity will probably motivate a few people who weren’t really all that enthused about either candidate to expend the extra effort to cast a ballot. The fact that they participated in the activity means they will cast a vote for the Romster.

If a handful of people in a “tipping point” county in a state like Ohio fall for this, well, chik-chik-chik go the dominoes.

(Heh.)

PS: 3000 “likes” on facebook. Granted, it’s not 3000000, but you never know. A steel bar will bend under the weight of a fly.

While the wife and kids were out trick or treating I go to stay at home. The lit pumpkin was on the doorstep advertising we were friendly to visitors but no callers at all not one. Went outside as the family returned home only to find the pumpkins face had been stoved in!
